Courtney's BBQ Information

Gene started smoking BBQ back in 1989 and has been doing it ever since. He began cooking for church events and parties and loved it so much he, and his wife Janice, decided to create a place for local Clover, SC families to come in, relax, and fill their bellies. They purchased and renovated the iconic Pine Bark Grocery Store that was originally built in the 1940s by the Drennan Family. The landmark building has seen many ventures over the decades, with its latest being Courtneys BBQ for the last 21 years. In August of 99, Gene and Janice with their two daughters and a freshly painted BIG RED BUILDING began learning the ins and outs of the restaurant business. With the restaurant booming, they began catering weddings and parties and winning BBQ competitions. Before long, the one room building couldnt hold the overflowing crowds coming from all around, so the restaurant has been expanded twice since then and now holds around 140 people. Through ups and downs of an economic regression and now, a global pandemic, Courtneys has continued to evolve to meet the demands of their customers. The newest adventure is the curbside grocery where you can get all your fresh meats and groceries without ever leaving your car.
